History

One of a series of Interwar buildings demolished to make way for the new ANZ World HQ. It was decided that the neighbouring Victorian neo-gothic banks should be restored at the expense of the former RACV, which was considered less architecturally and historically important to the state. I would haste to suggest this is not true, as the Automobiles Club was formed for the motor car, which caused urban renewal in Melbourne, marked the end of historical styles, and the beginning of urban renewal.
